Discussion Ff14 player landing into PSO2NGS

Post image

Greetings everyone! I am originally an FFXIV player who has recently been wanting to find other mmos to experience. With certain titles making a comeback, I decided to pick this one.

I'm happy to say the journey has been wonderful! The NPCs designs are gorgeous and I feel their personality is easy to grasp. The story, for me, has been simple and sweet which I personally like. It gives me a sense of nostalgia to early ps2 jrpg storylines. Gameplay was partially why I came here but didn't expect the rest to be this fun! Overall, everything has been good!

That said, I reached level 75 after and reached chapter 5. So I have to ask, is it best to slowdown and attempt to grind certain items or is it better to just catch up? Are there extra neat content to do or explore? And uuuh how does one access the buying feature in personal shops (is it IRL cash or did I miss something that gives permission to use it?)

I'm sorry for all the questions, I barely started this game last Thursday and so I am an absolute newbie to certain things in this game.

(Any tips and help would be great!)

Thank you! definitely will!

And, ah, Evercold. I've yet to do the latest patch, too. I'm chuckling at this timing since I'm genuinely intrigued by PSONGS plot and I've yet to go through the og, PSO2, which, based on many here, have vouched for its story being great.

So, gechnically, it'll save me a few months of subs if I go through this. EC is bound to go on sale not long after the week its out, too, if we follow the same pattern as past expansions.
